The Dragon Prince (2018)
What happened with this series? Such a downgrade after season 3!
I haven't checked but I wouldn't believe the series was made with the same showrunner and writers after season 3, nope, that can't be true. The first 3 seasons were very good (except I didn't like the lame solutions writers used to make evil doing characers look more "grey" by giving them recurring silly jokes and childish behaviour ).
But season 4 was so disappointing after the almost great first 3 seasons, I just couldn't believe. And now season 5 is... almost BAD. I can't say it's slighly good, nope, sorry.
My rating is for the downgrade of the last 2 seasons, however animation and music are still very good (also with exception of the anime/k-pop facial changes). The images and movements of characters are quaility productions, no doubt.
After watching season 5 these problems are clear:
1. Creators don't know what to do with characters (or maybe not even with the story itself). For example what happens with Claudia in season 5? For like 3 episodes she... just drags his father and she needs a rest. That's all. Viren is in coma during most of the 9 episodes with some non-sensical, time wasting fever dreams (that Twin Peaks scene was WTF?!). Ozymandias, you know the all-important little dragon prince is there but... he's just there, as a bio-decor. Also strange, that the subtitle became "Mystery of Aarvos" and yet he has smaller sceen time than he had in previous seasons, and we didn't get to know more about him at all than we what already knew previously.
2. The story of season 5 is extremely thin! Almost nothing happened in this season, the story just dragges, episodes pass and the story doesn't really move forward. I honestly say, what happens during 3-4 episodes of season 5, would have happened within 1 episode in the well written first 3 seasons. Season 5 is full of filler scenes which has no substanial meaning or importance for the story or characters. If the first 3 season were like this, I wouldn't have liked it and I'm sure this series wouldn't have become so popular.
3. World building considerably slowed down, character development completely stopped with a few exceptions. Characters do some actions but all these usually feel empty (like when Ezran was nerveously perparing for his speech with the dragons but then it just happened), if there's a conflict they mostly seem forced (like with Rayla telling Callum about the coins containing her beloveds' souls). The only drama and conflict which worked in this season was of Amaya and Jamai.
I wonder how someone would sum up what season 5 was about and what happend in it?
Also what happens with the main characters in these 9 episodes, for example with Ezran (who seem a side character now), Viren, Claudia or Callum (oh yeah, he connected with another arcanum but besides that... I mean 9 episodes...) or Soren (who became a plain comif relief).
I can't hide my disappointment, season 5 is rather BAD than good. :(
The Legend of Vox Machina (2022)
8.9 Are you kidding? Well, based on the idiotic humor it has, you probably are
I like fantasy. I like light hearted fun. I like good humor. I like adventure flicks.
However, the humor in this series is sooo bad, immature, lame, childish, forced that it ruins the whole experience.
I give it 5 point because I'm curious about the whole world and the lore, and maybe the characters too but the humor is so freaking bad I watch it cringing almost all the time (yes, that much humor they use).
The Mandalorian: Chapter 16: The Rescue (2020)
9.9 out of 10? Are you kidding me? Oh boy, those fanboys...
So you say with 9.9 rating, this episode of The Mandalorian is THE BEST EPISODE EVER MADE to any series in the world?
I mean, really???!
Jesus Christ, save us from the narrow-mindedness of the SW fanboys! :(
